Sherry offered us a Pirate Adventure image to use and below is my project. Once again I used some papers from a DCWV stack 6 and plain card I bought from Lidl. This card is serious thick but wonderful to use as a base card. I coloured my image with Spectrum Noir pens and the Happy Birthday sentiment is from the Creative Stamping magazine.

Now it's your turn to show us what you can do. Hop over to the Challenge blog and leave your For a Child project.

We were kindly given a choice of image and I chose Princess Color Page. I really enjoyed working with this image, it gave me chance to practice hair colouring. I used my Spectum Noir pens and a DCWV paper pad for the heart backing paper. Gold card was used to compliment her hair and provide the hearts. I didn't have the right colour card to use as a border so I coloured some white card with the same colour pen I used to highlight the details at the bottom of the dress. A Martha Steward punch was used for the border edge.

Hop over to the Challenge and leave us your Hearts and Flowers creations.

I used a WRMK mini 8 scallop punch to punch some pearlised card. I then scored a diamond trellis onto the card and put little pearls on the intersections. I used my spectrum noir to colour the SSD image called Curvy Babydoll Sassy, fussy cut the image and stuck it to the front of the card. I then used 1" wide satin ribbon to make a hanger. Not a card but I think the meaning will be clear if it turns up on the door handle.

About Me

I have started this blog to encourage me to use the enormous amount of craft stuff I have in the house. I have decided that in 2010 I am going to use more of my stash and enter more challenges. I enjoy making cards and scrap-booking.
